Accedently posted this on the inclass forum by accident so sry for the dbl topic.· Got a boe-bot and put in the BS2, plugged in the batteries, and the usb cable.· But my pc gave me and error after i tried to install the usb drivers. It said the device had malfunctioned and windows could not recognize it... now the little green led on the board wont come on when the switch is in 2 or 3 position... ideas?

    You might need to uninstall the old drivers and reinstall fresh. Make sure that you download and use the drivers specified -- don't let Windows find them for you automatically otherwise you may end up with less-than-perfect drivers.
